I  have a test unit AP7131 which was powered down during downgrade process from WiNG5.2.11 to WiNG4.3

Downgrade was applied on secondary firmware.  

Device currently boots on primary firmware and stays in boot mode (LED1 solid red).  

Please advise how to reload operational firmware to this unit in boot mode if it is possible at all.

 

Console port output during boot:

Hi Roland, You can try to load the fw using network from the boot prompt. If it doesn't help, the only other option you have is to load the image through the serial port. How to is attached. Please note this will take a few hours. If that doesn't help, you need to get a replacement from Brno and RMA this AP.
